like you can see in my submit button i put a result.php file

it's this file i want to make but i'm stuck... really don't know how to make.

in fact you can make only 1 selection and press submit ex: you select the 1/24 scale and press submit it will return ALL kit in 1/24. If you select tamiya and honda it will return every kit honda made by tamiya etc...

also i want to see the kit number, the picture, year of production and of course the picture associate to this kit.

see below my field title of my database

kit_id = the ID of the kit 0, 1 , 2 ... auto increment
kit_number
description
manufacturer_ki t
manufacturer_re el
engine_detail
year_prod_kit
year_prod_reel
type
scale
image_id

so any help will be granted.

thank's in advance

Colour Code Display Page Using Regular Expressions?

by: peridian | last post by:

Hi, I wanted a web page where I could post code to, and have it appear in coloured formatting based on the context of the code. Most of the techniques I have seen for this involve complex use of string manipulation where they seek through the string back and forth doing replacements to substitute in the needed HTML code. I am convinced that this can be done with a few regular expressions. Unfortunately my knowledge of regular...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
